Dust

Huy
Anna has impressed me ever since first finding out about her about 5-6 years ago on YouTube. I couldn't believe that a 9 or 10 year old had such a powerful voice! What added to that was the fact that she played piano and wrote her own songs! I just couldn't believe it. Throughout the years, she continues to write and perform, and I am still impressed; even more so. There are too many to list here as favorites, but believe me, I am utterly moved by her TALENT(!) in music writing, lyrics, emotion, and voice. She is a good example of consistency and passion for her craft. It is inspiring to hear and watch.If I haven't moved you yet to give her a listen, consider that she made it on America's Got Talent when she was 10 or 11. Okay. Enough said. I'll let you listen. :)

The Anna Graceman studio version of Dust. Be sure to also check out the Graceman Band version of Dust which is how we originally wrote it, as well as the stripped down acoustic version with just me and my piano.

lyrics

When rain will never fall
And darkness begins to call
To anyone who will listen
Under the influence
Beneath the star’s brilliance
Where we’re secretly wishing

Can’t keep up so we break down
Praising idols who wait around

We wave goodbye to our yesterday’s
We watch as they go
And then we just stay in place
Cause we really don’t know
What we’re doing, we don’t ask why
We give them our trust
Silently we look to the sky
As we turn into dust

Don't question or act afraid
Mask all of your raging hate
They say we're safe behind these bars
We've been told we'll be freed with time
Follow orders and stay in line
Someday we'll take back what's ours

Can't keep up so we break down
Cursing those idols who wait around

We wave goodbye to our yesterday’s
We watch as they go
And then we just stay in place
Cause we really don’t know
What we’re doing, we don’t ask why
We give them our trust
Silently we look to the sky
As we turn into dust

Embracing the pain as the days drag on
It's the only thing that will push me along
I can't find a way out
My hope is clouded by doubt

We wave goodbye to our yesterdays
As they're free to go
And then we just stay in place
Cause we really don’t know
What we’re doing, we don’t ask why
We gave them our trust
Silently we look to the sky
As we turn into dust
